Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead is A wonderful tale of women prevailing against all odds. It is interesting, engrossing, and entertaining. I was charmed by this epic novel and its characters. I didn’t want it to finish. Great Circle is one of those gigantic reads that takes us on a journey across time and history. It is a long journey into the character’s whole lives. They are orphaned, who are neglected and unprotected by unreliable adults, and advance their way as best as they can. They lose love and are loved by beasts. Dreams are delicate and come with a cost. Over and over, they should reinvent a life with another name or in a new place or with new love.

In the start, there is the tale of orphans Marian Graves and her sibling Jamie who run wild with neighbour kid Caleb, their grown-up caretakers problematic. At the point when travellers pass through, Marian gets obsessed with flying. Caleb trims her hair so she can be mistaken for a boy to earn money towards flying lessons by secret moonshine deliveries.

Barclay was rich and he was a criminal. He was accustomed to getting what he wanted. Also, he wanted Marian from the first occasion when he saw her as a girl. She went into a dreadful bargain: he would pay for her flying lessons, and she understood the unspoken arrangement that some time or another she would be his.

Caught into an oppressive and controlling marriage, Marian escapes, vanishes into Alaska, renewing herself as a bush pilot. At the point when WWII broke out, she volunteers in for the British Air Transport Auxiliary, shipping warplanes. She meets Ruth, who turns into her great love, and Ruth’s gay spouse Eddie. But, it is Caleb she actually goes to when broken.

After the war with its numerous losses, Marian is offered financing to fund her fantasy about flying all through the planet, pole to pole, and she just trusts Eddie to be her pilot. After Antarctica, they are believed to have been lost at sea.

Then, there is Hadley, likewise an orphan and mistreated by her uncle, who turned into a dearest child actress, and has a breakdown at age 20. Presently, she gets a chance to reinvent herself in a film about Marian’s life, based on the diary Marian left at Antarctica before she vanished. Hadley goes on a mission to find out about Marian, finding the reality of what occurred on that great circle trip from one pole to another.

The story of Marian gave Hadley a feeling of freedom and control. Actually Marian’s story can free us, as well, telling us the best way to live with boldness even in the darkest of times. How we should understand what we want, and to work for our fantasies consistently. I think Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead is worth a read.
